Think how advanced we would be without having to deal with a bullshit currency that is constantly changing. Money SHOULD not be a restriction. I agree that it should be a common interest but right now there's things going on that need to be dealt with. In my opinion, it's not worth it to spend hella money (billions, if not trillions) when we have a national debt in the trillions (I think, can't remember exactly) and there's so much other shit that needs to be fixed/worked out on our planet. We'd almost have to give up doing things on our planet just to find out what's out there...That's a big sacrifice that I dont' think many would take.

Were you talkin to me though?

Absolutely cmoke, I see what you're saying, I also see what sixxness is saying. All we can do is discuss it because none of us are sitting in the white house. If you have a real passion for this then you could do something about it but you'd have to invest all your time and money into funding your own education on it to put you in a "power position" to do so. Right now at this moment, would you invest ALL your TIME and MONEY to do so. Thats the postition that most people are in when it comes to this subject--the people who are in position already to make these kind of decisions.

Also you say, Theres no reason to know why we are here or what we are doing in the massive picture of everything....
I didn’t say there is no reason to know why we are here, I said there is no reason for us being here. In other words, there is no meaning to life.

People have been searching for the meaning of life for thousands of years. Basically, in the end, it’s whatever you make it to be.

but Myself personally iv accepted death and the fact that i aint gunna be around forever to see what happens....
Same here.

so i wanna know some shit before my time here is done, I wanna know whats out there
Well, many people do. I'd like to be here when we can teleport or have robotic arms and our bodies can morph into any shape desired. Will I be? Unlikely. Do I think all of these things are possible and worth researching? Yes.

and i feel it should be a common intrest shared by the majority of the human race to research this constantly without the limitation and restriction of money, think how much advanced we would be if we did things to get them done, instead of working like a slave for the american dollar which controls YOU and EVERYONE YOU KNOW. It dont matter what you say, this is true.
You're preaching to the choir. I'm a socialist comrade; a dirty red-bellied commie. One of the reasons why is exactly what you stated - so that mankind can spend more time advancing our species.

I don't see why the meaning of life isn't just to LIVE. Maybe it is and people just haven't figured that one out yet....lol...

thats the best part of the process
u are gonna read whatever interests you about the supernatural
such as , psychics, telekinesis, n so on
and then u will try n see what relates all of them together
once your belief is set, you will continue to analyze everything and upgrade your beliefs n so on

but like, some terms to search for would be "parapsychology" "psychic" "mind"
in the Documents section in bearshare or whatever u download music with
those are interesting

whats weird is i can see how everything thats paranormal is relating
and how great the power of belief and faith is

read about meditation and its benefits
and from there u will move on like i did, readin about a lady who was able to move shit with her mind
and wiki says that she needed 15 min to sit still n clear her mind before doing any of the tricks
therefor u can say , meditation which is known to increase focus, greatly helps the person to use that focus on a certain object or a certain thing

i dont know im probably speakin gibberish to you guys but to all that are interested, best i can say is to start analyzing everything, and watch the way your thoughts work, and watch humans in general and read read read

always ask questions such as "howcome when this guy ate the sugar pill after being told it was poison, died?"

shit like that will add on to your knowledge about the supernatural as a whole
i know u get the picture by now :cool:

You could have given Daedalus, or some real-life contemporary, as much gold and resources as you wanted but there is no way he would have invented a flying plane with a fusalage, cockpit, wings, powerplant, or elevator. That technology was millenia away from his grasps.

And you can pour as much money as you want into the Space Program but there is no way they'll create any sort of hyperdrive/near light speed engine anytime in the forseeable future. The space shuttle, to my knowledge reaches Mach 23 or about 17,000 mph. The closest star, not Sol, is about 4.2 light years away. The speed of light is 186000 mi/sec or 670 million mph. There is no way in hell well reach it ANY TIME soon and it's unfair to say that it's because of monetary restrictions.

Good lookin out. I used to do a lot of reading about this topic but for some reason I stopped....More than likely got busy with school. But this topic does interest me quite a bit. I dont' use any music downloading things, but I'll see what I can find on the web and maybe at the library.

And about analyzing everything....Been doin it, for years. I try to look at shit from every point of view but sometimes my personal opinion overshadows this...Thanks again for the info and tips.

then thats where u study maybe why your personal opinion overshadows that subject n so on
there will always be something to be learned from anything

also if u go to the library
a good book to start with would be anything about mind over matter
and the picture books for that subject are great

Mexican Commando, I garuntee you, that we are not researching to our full potential because of funding issues. This country will be in debt FOREVER. It will NEVER end.


What im saying is, instead of waiting for a paycheck to lift a finger, Do it for the common good of getting it done. Sadly the world doesnt work like this, which is our downfall, and restriction into the future. Trust me they could have the technology if it werent for money...

I mean, the egyptians we have found, learned and created things such as batteries and power devices...The government does not expose new technology to the public, this is a fact...an example? Cellular communication was discovered in the early 1940's, but when did it get released to the public? can you remember?

I know were not researching at our full potential because people aren't researching this 24/7. And even then those people wouldn't be researching at their full potential because only X amount of people out of Y population would be researching it. And even if Y out Y people were researching Space Travel it wouldn't be at our full potential if these people weren't all some sort of Physicist or Chemist. And then they wouldn't be researching at their fullest potential because they wouldn't all have a PHD in whatever Space Travel field they persued. But it's not just funding issues. It's also realistic thresholds. The 6 billion people on this planet are not going to willfully pursue this endeavor.

As for being in debt for ever? I doubt it. Budget surpluses aren't an impossibility.

But without that initial paycheck there would be very little funding and other than untested theories there wouldn't be more that scientist could provide. That initial paycheck is essential.

A marathon runner runs at what? 15-17 mph? A space shuttle runs at what? 17,000mph? That's a factor of 1,000 in about a hundred years. You want to be able to go as fast as 670million MPH or faster if you ever want to leave the solar system. That's a factor of 33,500,000. The first plane flew in the early 1900's. It is now the year 2000. We have made incredible strides but there is NO WAY that ANY ONE would be able to make this technology. According to some of the world's smartest the concept of faster than light travel alone is preposterous, so maybe there is no such technology, in which case it would be impossible to have it.

You're preaching to the choir. But this has NOTHING to do with space travel.

Budget surplus isn't in our Gov't's (or president, imo) vocabulary. When was the last time there was a surplus? And what did we do with it out of curiousity?
